when life gives you sweet potatoes, carrots, garlic, onions, apples, raisins, quinoa, goat cheese and broccoli...
make this!
preheat oven to 450.
wash all veggies. peel potatoes and carrots. roughly chop all veggies and apples.
in a roasting pan, put carrots, broccoli, sweet potatoes and onion. coat with a light layer of olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for 10-15 minutes.
while veggies are roasting, cook 2 cups quinoa according to the method you prefer. during the last 3 minutes of cooking, toss in some raisins so they get plump.
after the veggies have roasted 10-15 minutes, remove the pan and add the roughly chopped garlic. roast for another 10 minutes.
remove pan from oven, mix in the raw apples, quinoa and raisins in the same pan, and season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and cinnamon.
plate and add a little smathering of goat cheese*, if you feel so inclined. drizzle with a little lemon juice, and enjoy autumn's bounty.
*optional.
